Hi Monical,

I dont think that this Jane Keith is the one I am after as Jane was married in Brisbane to Andrew Brown in 1863 and died there in 1914, but thanks anyway.   8)

Midlothian / Re: Lookup Please - 1841 Census - Ann McKenzie

Hi down-under,

Thank you for going to the trouble to provide this info.  I was hoping that more McKenzies were living at 60 Cumberland Street, that would have given me a pointer to some other family members.  It may be that Ann was related to the families you provided so I will have to dig deeper.  It could also be that Ann was a domestic for the family at 60 Cumberland Street.

I do appreciate the trouble to went to on my behalf.

Regards,

Hi MonicaLesl,

Thank you very much for the info.  I will look into it now.  Jane Keith's death certificate does not show either of her parent's names unfortunately.  I have not yet obtained her marriage certificate but I will in the near future.

Thanks again for your help.  I do appreciate it.   8)

Midlothian / Lookup Please - 1841 Census - Ann McKenzie
« on: Saturday 03 July 10 10:31 BST (UK)  »
I have hit a brick wall looking for data for an Ann McKenzie who was born about 1818 and married a William Murdoch in St Cuthberts Edinburgh on the 7 May 1838.  At the time of the marriage Ann was living at No 60 Cumberland Street (Edinburgh).  In 1940 Ann and William moved to the London area (Tottenham and later Islington).

Could somebody please check the 1841 census to see in there were any other McKenzies at 60 Cumberland Street?

The only other info I have is that Ann's father was a farmer at Bogray in the parish of Kirkhill, Inverness at the time of her marriage.

Thank you.

Lanarkshire / Jane Keith - Help Please

I have hit a brick wall looking for information on a Jane Keith's family.  Jane  was born in Glasgow in 1836 and emigrated to Australia.  She married Andrew Brown in Brisbane on 28 Oct 1863 and died in Brisbane in 1914.

I have some info that suggests that her father was a Peter Keith and her mother was Ann Newbigging but this is sketchy at best.

Any information on this family would be greatly appreciated.

Ayrshire / Andrew Brown - Help Please

I am trying to obtain info on Andrew Brown's ancestors and have hit a brick wall.  The Andrew Brown I am interested in was born on 3 Jan 1830.  He married Elizabeth Redmond (?) on 19 Dec 1852 and emigrated to Australia on the Conway in 1862.

A now departed family member told me that Andrew Brown was in some way related to Robbie Burns.  I would be very interested to discover if this is true, and if it is, how.  Thank you.
